Obama Traveling Press Secretary Jen Psaki Says An Incomplete
And A Desire To Do More Is Far Better Than A Failing Grade"
On The Economy...During
A Press Gaggle, Obama Campaign Traveling Press Secretary Jen Psaki Said Obama's
Grading Of Himself On The Economy As "Incomplete" And His "Desire To
Do More Is Far Better Than A Failing Grade." REPORTER:
"But as a recipient of many 'incompletes' myself, I know that it's not a passing
grade. (Laughter.) So how do you make your pitch to the American public that an
incomplete deserves a reelection?"JEN PSAKI: "Well, I think what an incomplete
means is that there's more work that he wants to do for the middle class and for
the American people. The alternative is to go back to the old playbook of failed
policies and failing grades, and that's what Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan want to
do. That's where they want to lead this country. So you have a choice: Either
you have somebody who has accomplished a great deal, who has helped bring the
economy back from the brink of collapse and still wants to fight more for the
middle class and do more for the American people, or you have the Romney/Ryan
team that wants to go back to the failed, rotten policies of the past.So I
think an incomplete and a desire to do more is far better than a failing
grade." (White House Press Gaggle, En Route Norfolk, VA., 9/4/12)
